Five ways to add more “green” to your lifestyle

For years, nobody wanted to be green. Being green meant you were either jealous or sick, but times have changed. People now strive to be green by saving energy, donating to environmental programs and volunteering at local parks.

Dakota Electric wants to help our members achieve their green status with the following programs.
